Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1374: Chapter 44 Great Emperor Utterly Defeated_3 Chapter 1374: Chapter 44 Great Emperor Utterly Defeated_3 “Originally, he was rather low-profile,” Zhao Mingzhi spoke, “but as the struggle for the Emperor’s son’s position has concluded, the competition among Saints will follow. It’s clear that Master Jiang’s reign won’t last long, at best only a few hundred more years to live well.”

“Now, Jiang’s has become active again, naturally wanting to seize as much as possible before Master Jiang falls. Nowadays, in Tianfu County, Jiang’s has caused an atmosphere filled with dark clouds and overwhelming grievances. But with Master Jiang above them, who dares to oppose them directly?”

“All the Prominent Families in Tianfu County are speculating—could it be that Master Jiang has gained wisdom in his old age? Preparing to lay a solid foundation for Jiang’s, aiming to advance into the Third-Class Aristocratic Families.”

Jiang Zhencang staggered, his old face alternating between black and white.

He had never expected that while following Emperor Longchang for some drama, it would end up landing on his own head.

What did they mean by gaining wisdom in his old age? Preparing to make a big haul?

His lifelong reputation as Jiang Zhencang… had been utterly ruined by a family that disappointed him to the extreme.

“Zhao boy, are you sure it was Jiang’s doing?” Emperor Longchang’s old face also showed embarrassment. Initially intending to catch Wang Shouzhe in a misdeed, it unexpectedly landed on his old buddy Jiang Zhencang’s head.

“How could I be unsure?” Zhao Mingzhi replied indignantly, “Even though our Tianfu Zhao Clan has declined, we still have our own information channels. We came here to meet Master Shouzhe hoping to get an extension on our dues, to find a way to deal with this batch of goods. With the capabilities and channels of our Zhao Clan, without Jiang’s interference, we could easily sell these pots.”

His resentment was not low, obviously been bullied by Jiang’s quite a bit in recent decades.

“Old Jiang, what should we do?” Emperor Longchang’s imposing manner suddenly weakened, and he transmitted a message weakly, “Or shall I ask Shouzhe to help cover this up?”

After all, they had collaborated for thousands of years; Emperor Longchang still took good care of Jiang Zhencang.

“Cover what up?” Jiang Zhencang transmitted back furiously, “If Shouzhe is bullying others using his power, you would relentlessly pursue no matter what. But when it comes to an irrelevant Jiang’s, you back down? Handle it as it should be handled and suppress their arrogant manner.”

“Alright, alright, to be honest, I was just trying to outdo Shouzhe, not genuinely bullying him,” Emperor Longchang transmitted somewhat aggrieved, “You wouldn’t know how much Shouzhe has schemed against me since the struggle for the Emperor’s son started. How many times has he slandered me? How much grievance have I suffered? I must reclaim some dignity, right?”

“Forget it, let’s withdraw, we’ll discuss this matter later,” seeing that the atmosphere was off, Emperor Longchang prepared to slink away quietly.

Just then, Wang Ansong exclaimed, “Grand Elder, you’ve finally arrived.”

Instantly, Emperor Longchang shrank his neck in fright, Wang Shouzhe got here too quickly, didn’t he? Even if he had special means of quick notification, there’s no reason for him to arrive so rapidly, right?

Not right!

I forgot something.

Wang Shouzhe dismantled a set of Single-way Spatial Anchor Teleportation Formations within the relics of Blood Venerate… such an economically crucial place as Xinping Town, how could it not have a spatial anchor point?

A blunder, truly a blunder.

“Your Majesty, you are here too?” Wang Shouzhe, spotting the sneakily retreating Emperor Longchang, greeted him with a beaming smile, “Playing incognito visits again, Your Majesty?”

Speaking of which, Emperor Longchang had indeed disguised himself, but his disguise skills were mediocre at best, only sufficient to deceive those less familiar.

This Great Emperor, often lingering in Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard without urgent matters, nearly every day clearly visible to Wang Shouzhe.

Simply put, even if Longchang died and turned to ash, Wang Shouzhe could still recognize him.

“Your Majesty?”

The scene suddenly turned deathly quiet; this shabby old fellow with a wretched aura was actually the reigning Emperor? This did not match with the majestic aura associated with the Longchang era at all, causing people to feel their idols shattering inside their hearts.

“Pay respects to Your Majesty,” the people from the Zhao Clan hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.

And the young girl Yun’er, quite startled, added, “Grand Emperor, please favor our Zhao Clan with your justice.”

“This… I haven’t managed affairs for a long time; let Shouzhe handle it, let Shouzhe do it,” Emperor Longchang, glaring fiercely at Wang Shouzhe, desperately wanted to find a hole to crawl into.WRAPPER_POST:What an embarrassment?

Just when I wanted to enjoy a bit, it’s that Wang Shouzhe kid who ends up enjoying it. Is it because this Great Emperor, renown throughout the universe with unparalleled achievements, was too much for Heavenly Dao to bear, specifically sending Wang Shouzhe to slap my face?

“It truly won’t do, you can also speak to Master Jiang about it, right, Old Jiang?” Emperor Longchang skillfully threw Jiang Zhencang under the bus, then tore through space and fled.

He truly couldn’t face staying in this broken place any longer.

Master Jiang?

The crowd was rocked once again.

One shabby old man being Emperor Longchang is one thing, but another old man being the current Sacred Master Jiang Zhencang?

What kind of situation was this?

Two of the only Void Realm great experts in Da Qian both visiting incognito!

First, the tavern owner’s legs went weak, but then he quickly became exhilarated. What a great opportunity! He could rename his tavern to “The Tavern Where Emperor Longchang and Master Jiang Both Come in Disguise”—wouldn’t that make a fortune?

“Shouzhe, this matter is handed over to you. Regarding Jiang’s, don’t give me face, handle it as it should be,” Jiang Zhencang, his old face burning hot, dropped a line for appearances and also tore through space to escape.
